Ready? Let’s begin. The Garbage Truck Tool
🔸 Picture yourself as the proud owner of a big, shiny orange garbage truck—or any garbage truck that feels right to you.
🔸 Climb into the driver’s seat. Feel the sturdy wheel beneath your hands. On the seat beside you, there’s a roll of garbage bags.
🔸 Breathe deeply. Low and slow into your belly. Let your mind drift back through your life, scanning for stress, turmoil, old wounds. You don’t need to relive the past—just notice where those heavy emotions sit in your body.
🔸 See them. They might appear as dark shadows, tangled knots, or just a vague heaviness. That’s okay. You’re not here to analyze them—you’re here to let them go.
🔸 One by one, lift them out. Gather the stress, the worries, the pain—whatever has been weighing you down—and drop them into the garbage bags.
🔸 Toss each bag into the back of your truck. Feel the relief with every release.
🔸 Now, put the truck into gear. Drive to the dump. Back up. Tip the tray. Watch as all that old baggage slides away—gone forever.
🔸 When you’re ready, drive back. Park your truck. Take a deep breath. Feel the lightness, the space, the freedom. You did it.
💡 Use this tool anytime—whether you’re in the middle of a difficult moment or simply doing a regular emotional cleanup.
Every time you take out the trash, you come back lighter, clearer, and renewed.
